[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I am so sick of women using hormones as an excuse to be a bitch.  I've had three so I know whereof I speak.  Maybe the nanny should call your snowflake "miss" to make sure she knows her place.  If this is all you have to complain about, you are lucky.  [/quote]

No need to be rude, and the 'snowflake' is a baby...just stop.

Please, can we all agree that the term "snowflake is absolutely condescending and unnecessary.

I'm sorry, I know I'm oversensitive and I will just let it go.  It's not a nickname like Emmy for Emily, it's what DH and I called DD when she was in the womb, so it is pretty special to us.  I'll just learn to let it go.[/quote]

You know, at first I was on the "you really shouldn't say anything about it" side of things, but thinking more about it I may have changed my mind. I'm 23 and my mom still sometimes calls me by my in utero nickname, and I think it'd be pretty weird if anyone else ever tried to call me that. I'd start by eliminating your use of the nickname in the presence of the nanny. If that doesn't help, I think you can gently say exactly what you've said here "This may just be me being a hormonal FTM, but X is a special nickname for DD and I'd really like to keep that special between us"[/quote]
